Read this. Michigan grocer/department store Meijer (one of the coolest stores on the planet, IMO) is apparently in negotiations to build a store in Detroit, and apparently it would not only be the biggest development in that city of nearly one million people in fifty years (it wouldn't be in my town of 16,000), but it would also be the first major grocer to open up shop there since 2007.
Want to fix Detroit? I suggest that getting the Mayor's (and the city council's) hands out of the matter would be a great start. Applying for a permit to build a store should not require "negotiations" any more than a permit for new windows.
